LOL, you aren’t a grumpy cat. You don’t deposit dead birds on furniture *narrows eyes at the grumpy ‘lil gentleman nestled atop of my cablebox*

Anyway, I don’t think its un-Christian to attribute improved health, to well, medical treatments. I can’t grasp the ego of certain “faith healers” who choose to take credit for the work of medical professionals. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with a congregation praying for say, a cancer patient, but I’d also thank God for the cancer patient being blessed with an oncologist/surgeon/etc.

Our church has seen many a healing – and hey, the pastor isn’t dead… which he ought to be. I set up rides for a lady who needed to get to her breast cancer treatments …. she’d been cured of the liver cancer she’d also had (the elders prayed over her), so now she had to deal with a mastectomy – they don’t bother with people with liver cancer. So – healings DO happen. On God’s schedule, not ours (or why leave her with any cancer?). But I agree, can make it all about the power and not about God. :p
